9st 3lb |
All four of his wins have been on testing ground, the most recent at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) last August; has the headgear/tongue-tie left off on his first start since October and is best watched on ground that will probably be quicker than ideal. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A dual C&D winner in 2025 (including this race) but he arrives well below his best, only sixth of nine in C&D handicap last month; needs to take a big step forward. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Three wins and three seconds from eight runs here and he will be happier sprinting again having not seen out 1m last month; time has looked to be catching up this year, however, and Legendsoftheland appears his trainer's best chance. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven wins include two at this track over 6f (good to soft/good to firm) but her last success came in October 2024; beat only one rival home on her reappearance here over 6f last month and now drops back in trip on her return to classified company. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Mudlark who starts her campaign off a lowly mark; she has a nine-month absence to overcome, however, and that hasn't been the time to catch her in previous seasons. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

Effectively 11lb lower than when winning on heavy ground at Windsor (5f) last October but placed on only one of her nine appearances this year and evidently not as good as she was. |

28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Denied a clear run when fourth in first-time visor (retained since) in Bath classified two starts ago; however, he didn't really build on that in a handicap at Chepstow last time and has won just one of his 37 starts. |
12/1 |

14th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Looked unlucky not to finish closer to the target when fourth in recent Bath classified (5.7f, good to firm; first-time visor) but has poor strike-rate (1-36) and makes only limited appeal on this handicap return. |

10st 9lb |
Five-time winner on turf over 6f, most recently at Chepstow last June off 2lb higher; failed to beat a rival on his reappearance and he was behind Shades Of May when seventh at Salisbury (7f) two weeks ago; others preferred. |
16/1 |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |

Has gained all wins over 6f but went very close (off 3lb higher) in this race last year, albeit was in better form at the time; admittedly may prove resurgent with Brighton reappearance under his belt. |
10/1 |

6th 5 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Won two 6f handicaps at Chepstow last June and went close in his hat-trick bid the following month (7f); two lesser efforts followed and he returns to action after 263 days on the sidelines. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Narrow winner of a 6f handicap here (good to soft) in May and that has been followed by three similar efforts in defeat; creeping up the weights so she will need a bit more now back up to 7f. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Back to form when scoring over C&D (good to soft) last month and has made the frame twice since over C&D; she looks sure to be thereabouts. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Back to winning ways when leading late in a C&D handicap last month (good to soft); not quite so good when fourth to Too Much Trevor nine days ago but it was still a fair effort; shouldn't be far away. |

Placed over C&D twice in a row in July (firm) and respectable fourth at Windsor (6f, good to firm) since; this three-time course winner is high on the list. |

4th 10 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Nine wins in his 91-race career and he was beaten by two noses (by Jackie Brown and Symbol Of Hope) over 5.7f at Bath on latest start, flying at the finish having been last of nine inside the final 1f; that classified race puts him back in the picture but Bath is his most usual hunting ground and his only appearance here was in 2023. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained three of his nine wins here, two on firm ground over this trip; kept on for second (no match for winner) off his basement handicap mark over C&D (firm) at start of this month and has each-way claims again. |

Multiple winner on turf/AW; however, failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las (6f) last month on debut for new yard, having been a market drifter; best watched unless the betting suggests otherwise. |
